JblTBRAW JtitetiaSuf, Committee Back row: Amlin Heidmann, John Kroeker, John Martins. Front row: Anne Koop, Miss Johnson, Bill Schroeder (convenor), Lottie Neufeld, Romelda Reimer. The Literary Committee sponsored a literary program on November 15th. The two plays which the S. C. I. presented this year constituted the rest of their work. On December 20th and 21st Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol” was presented. The play involved a large cast and the prepara¬ tions had to he hurriedly made, but it was as successful as the second play which the S. C. I. presented. The net proceeds amount¬ ing to about a hundred dollars were donated to the Red Cross. Another play by Dickens, “Oliver Twist” , was presented on May 16th and 17th in which some of the portrayals, particular¬ ly that of Fagin, were outstanding. Both plays were directed by Miss S. S. Johnson. Bearing the greatest responsibility she was never able to relax until the fall of the last curtain. PAGE THIRTY-SEVEN

Council THE COUNCIL: (standing in background) Ru el Keblcr X, Arinin Heidniann XI. At table: Dorothy Penner X, Norma Rempel (secretary), Mr. Rempel, Mr. Kornelsen, Phyllis Laing XI, John Kroeker XII, Adina Penner (vice-president), Peter Rarkman Pre¬ sident) .Connie Barkman XII. The first-term council, with Elmer Rei- mer as president, appointed a constitution committee. This committee drafted the Con¬ stitution which was adopted April 30. This council also sponsored Dickens’ “A Christ¬ mas Carol”, the proceeds of which were donated to the Red Cross. The second-term council adopted a large agenda. It purchased a much needed combi¬ nation radio and phonograph. It sponsored a second play, Dickens’ “Oliver Twist”, and supplemented the receipts from this play with those obtained from the raffle to pay for the radio and a tennis court.The construc¬ tion of the court was somewhat delayed because of the shortage of cinders, but will be continued as soon as these are available again. This council also helped to finance the graduation exercises, and is at present contemplating a trip to Hawk lake by the student body at the end of the year. As president of the student body I wish to thank the council, the committee mem¬ bers and each member of the student body foi the co-operative spirit which they have shown in carrying on this work. Much cre¬ dit is also due to the faculty for their inter¬ est and assistance. It is this element of co¬ operation between the faculty, the student body and the council which makes projects like this year book possible. Peter Barkman. PAGE THIRTY-SIX
